Lice found, but not on head

Suspicious! ?

I would need more info from the teacher...

As Judge Judy always says... "If it doesn't make sense, it probably isn't true."

None of my teachers would touch one with a ten foot pole, so I have never had this happen. I have taped them on a post it note for a parent, however. I pulled one out of an eyebrow already this year.

Ewwwww

Thanks, this is a kid that already stretches her medical problems to get extra attention as it is, so it comes off kind of suspicious to me, glad to know I'm not the only one!

CDC says lice is ok to stay at school, so back to class little one!

Interesting. I'd ask more questions such as where did they find it? I have been checking the affected elementary grades this week due to several cases and was surprised to find 2 students (siblings) with a few nits that were likely empty due to being grown out more than 1/2 inch from the scalp. I found no live lice or any nits closer to the scalp. I asked them both and the parent separately if that had already treated at home in the last month or so, they all denied it. (Parents are encouraged to notify the school if they find lice/ treat at home so we can be aware and check classmates.) Hmm, okay. Back to class it is! Seemed strange though.

Now I'm itchy

Really Kidz? I think the true hallmark of school nurse is no itch when discussing lice.

Nothing
